IU is expected. Contrary to popular belief, IU does not have any huge dedicated streaming fandom. Huge fandom yes, but not one that cares at all about streaming, because theres never really been a need for it in her case. For anyone looking at the chart data over the years, that much is obvious when looking at how her songs behave on the charts.
Well it at least helps to establish that difference, between Stan streamed success and NOT.
It is not a bad thing to have a massive/dedicated fandom,
but it is a fallacy to deny that they can skew the results of charting, misrepresenting the popularity of the song.
Unfortunately most discussions about the 'skew' end up being fights where the besotted people think, that they are being accused just for being 'fans' and their faves accused for having 'fandoms'
This is a technology/statistical issue - which charts need to figure out.
There is nothing to accuse fandoms, acts about - they are doing what makes them happy. Having a dedicated fandom, and that fandom to mass stream is nothing wrong and is credit worthy.
Just that charts have to figure out a way to isolate the skew due to that.

BTS is thriving on this chart, fuck yeah.
BTS thrives in what ever type of charts Melon throws at them lol
BTS gaining from this proves their huge following but their top 10 songs not moving much on the new Melon as compared to their rankings on 24Hits UL-based charts proves they have the GP too. When you have both, you can survive any chart reform in Korea.
It’s 2021 and some Kpop fans are still trying to discredit the success of Korea’s biggest group. Their yearly GP-focused Gallup Survey results and TV ratings boosts alone show you that yes, you CAN have the best of both worlds.
Gonna interpret this as Korean onces streaming less than mid tier bg fandoms
That's always been the case, Onces are probably the least organised big fandom.
Unbothered kings.
